Cavan man brilliantly trolls Dublin fans with flag high in the sky ahead of All-Ireland semi-final clash

A Cavan man has brilliantly trolled Dublin fans ahead of this evening's All-Ireland semi-final by placing a Breffni flag on top of a crane in the capital.

Matty Cahill was working in Santry during the week and put the flag on top of a large red crane.

Sharing a picture of his work on Facebook, he said: "Cavan flag flying high over Dublin City."

The post attracted plenty of likes and comments, which were from a mix of Cavan and Dublin fans.

One wrote: "Class..just where it should be.."

Another commented: "I hope it’s still flying Monday."

Someone else said: "It's the poor fecker that has to do the climb of shame on the Monday morning to take it back down I feel sorry for. Up the dubs."

Cavan were crowned Ulser champions for the first time in 23 years after beating Donegal last month, but face a massive challenge at Croke Park this evening against the six-in-a-row seeking Dubs.

Dessie Farrell's side hammered Meath by 3-21 to 0-09 to claim their tenth consecutive Leinster title two weeks ago and are as short 100/1 on with the bookies to beat Cavan.

The Irish Mirror's GAA columnist and two-time All-Ireland winner Bernard Flynn believes Mickey Graham's side will be doing well to lose by less than 10 points. You can read his column here.
